Aleks Lackovic Takes Down Huge Multi-Way Pot

With the board showing {7-Clubs}{K-Hearts}{8-Spades}{5-Clubs} Aleks Lackovic bets 1,500 into the pot holding a set of eights. Emad Tahtouh makes a raise to 4,500 with {J-Hearts}{9-Spades} for a double gutshot straight draw, before another opponent comes over the top of both players with an all-in raise of 14,500 with {K-Clubs}{4-Clubs} for top pair plus flush and straight draws. Aleks makes the call, and Tahtouh slams his cards into the muck in frustration.

The river is {10-Hearts} and the set of eights of Lackovic hold up to take down the large pot as Tahtouh lets outs a shriek in the knowledge that he would've hit his straight.
